• Yang Sejong Faces Unwarranted Criticism for His Recent Appearance in "Doona", Fans Rally in Support

    South Korean actor Yang Sejong finds himself at the center of controversy as netizens engage in unwarranted criticism regarding his current physical appearance.

    Fans are expressing disappointment at the forced negativity directed at the actor, who has been subjected to comments about his recent weight gain.

    The actor, known for his roles in various dramas, has recently become the target of online discussions regarding his looks.

    Some netizens contend that his current appearance, marked by a slight weight gain, has led to a downturn in public opinion.

    Online comments reveal a range of opinions:

    "Then he should lose weight. What do you want us to do?"

    "He's playing a role of someone handsome but can't even manage his face and lose weight, so who cares if he was originally handsome? Song Kang and Cha Eun Woo are managing themselves well, so Yang Sejong should manage himself a bit too."

    "He looked way too average in Lee Doona. I was disappointed. He just needs to lose weight."

    "He wasn't 'freaking handsome' even when he was skinny; his body isn't super good, and he doesn't have an aura either. So why are you hyping him so much?ㅋㅋ"

    "He's the type of person who needs to vigorously manage himself... other examples would be Ahn Hyo Seop and Yoon Kyun Sangㅇㅇ"

    "Duel was seriously Yang Sejong's video photoshoot."

    While some critics are urging the actor to address his physical appearance, fans are rallying in support of Yang Sejong, emphasizing that the focus should be on his talent rather than his looks.

    Supporters argue that the forced scrutiny over his weight gain is unwarranted, and the actor's skills and performances should be the primary focus.

    As the discussions surrounding Yang Sejong's appearance continue, the incident sheds light on the pervasive issue of body image expectations in the entertainment industry, prompting fans to call for a more positive and understanding approach to evaluating celebrities.

  • Lee Kyung Gyu secretly helped Hong Jin Kyung debut on TV and she didn’t even know for years

    Lee Kyung Gyu's star-making influence goes beyond Kang Ho Dong, as Hong Jin Kyung shares how he helped her kickstart her career.

    On the April 24 episode of KBS 2TV’s Problem Child in House, legendary comedian Lee Kyung Gyu appeared as a guest—and a touching story from the past was revealed.

    Hong Jin Kyung surprised everyone when she said, “He’s the teacher for all of us. Personally, he’s the one who helped me debut.” She even pinned a carnation flower on his chest to show her gratitude.

    Lee Kyung Gyu smiled and said, “I still remember when Hong Jin Kyung walked up the stairs onto the stage for the first time.”

    Hong Jin Kyung then shared her journey to becoming a star. “I joined a supermodel contest, but only the top 3 winners were noticed in broadcasting. I got a special prize, so I had no chance to be on TV."

    She continued, "At first, I was just a backup for a show. But somehow, I became a regular the next week. I never knew why."

    She added, "I thought the PD gave me a shot. But then one day, I randomly met Kyung Gyu sunbae, and he told me it was actually him who recommended me.”

    Kim Sook asked with a smile, “So Kyung Gyu sunbae said nice things about you to the PD?”

    Lee Kyung Gyu playfully replied, “Don’t say it in such a childish way,” making everyone laugh.

    He then explained more seriously, “The show was Scoop TV Entertainment, and I was pretty much the main MC. When Jin Kyung showed up, I saw her determination and passion."

    He added, "While others didn’t seem serious, she really stood out. I told the PD, ‘She seems unique. Why not keep her on the show?’”

    Kim Jong Kook chimed in, “So if the main MC said that, doesn’t that mean you basically got her in?”

    That made Lee Kyung Gyu happy. He grinned and replied, “Exactly! You speak well. Be like him!”

    He added, “After that, Jin Kyung’s career took off. She started doing shows with Lee Young Ja and just kept going.”

    Fans are now calling Lee Kyung Gyu not only a top MC, but also a quiet star-maker behind the scenes!
